Chapter 90

"Hey! Oh my God, what were you thinking! You even offended Hongxiu. (!Win talk time) You went and offended them too? No wonder those guys have been investigating your background recently, they’re probably just waiting to catch you. Now you’ve offended both the Hongxiu and Zǐyè teams, only Tiānmíng is left. You might as well not show your face in the outer sect anymore! Or just hide in the sect and never come out. Otherwise, you’ll definitely end up dead without a whole body!"

Wang Chen’s response made Xiàng Qiánkān clutch his head and shout wildly. He was completely speechless. No one had ever caused trouble to this extent. He was the first to think of robbing a team for Star Beads. He was also the first to be so reckless. Even the top ten on the Star List and the madmen who didn’t join teams never thought of robbing small teams to get Star Beads and points. This guy was really daring, daring to challenge even Hongxiu’s territory, truly fearless! He was thoroughly convinced.

"You’d better be careful. I’ll go and gather some information for you. Try not to go out these few days. With your current points, staying in the top twenty shouldn’t be a problem. Just stay put. I’ll let you know as soon as I have any news. Damn, who made us brothers!" He pouted, looked at Wang Chen, and said weakly.

Having such a friend really made him depressed.

"Don’t worry, nothing will happen!" Wang Chen felt a warmth in his heart at Xiàng Qiánkān’s words and comforted him.

"Good thing I didn’t give them all your information. They probably still don’t know it was you. Be careful, don’t let them find out. I’ll go and contact them to see if there’s a way to ease the tension." He pouted, completely speechless about Wang Chen, and left in frustration.

Watching Xiàng Qiánkān leave, Wang Chen showed a bitter smile. The last few days might really be eventful.

"Hongxiu?" Thinking of this team, Wang Chen’s scalp tingled, especially the little devil named Kě’ér. He had already seen her capriciousness that day. Could they really be looking for trouble?

It didn’t seem to have reached that point. If they wanted revenge, they would have acted that day. Liú Xīnyán, a Fifth Stage True Martial Practitioner, was already enough to suppress him. There was no need to wait until now to act. But why were they investigating him?

Wang Chen couldn’t quite figure it out. After a long sigh, he decided not to think too much about it. What’s meant to be will be, and what’s not meant to be can’t be avoided.

Now, what he needed most was strength. He had been lingering at the Ninth Stage of Body Tempering for over a month, especially at the peak of the Ninth Stage for half a month, but still hadn’t felt any signs of breakthrough.

It seemed he had really hit a bottleneck. Breaking through wasn’t that simple.

Advancing from the Ninth Stage of Body Tempering to the True Martial Practitioner stage was definitely a bottleneck, one that everyone would encounter, and an important checkpoint and turning point.

Many martial practitioners were stuck here for their entire lives, unable to make further progress. But once they could break through this barrier and enter the True Martial Practitioner stage, their cultivation path would become smooth again!

What Wang Chen urgently needed now was to break through this barrier and enter the True Martial Practitioner stage.

...

The night was dark, and the winter sky was pitch black. The few stars in the sky seemed somewhat dim, and the moon was hazy, with the cold wind howling.

"Did you hear that Wang Chen offended Bái Chén and his group today?"

At this moment, in a house within the outer sect of the Star Sect, a girl in light yellow clothes asked the two other girls beside her.

Under the yellowish light, her face was slightly red, her brows slightly furrowed, with a hint of worry.

"Yes, I heard that Bái Chén has already asked Zǐyè to take action. That Wang Chen is in trouble! What? Sister Xīnyán, are you worried?" The petite girl asked with a playful tone.

These three were Liú Xīnyán, Kě’ér, and Zǐlán from Hongxiu.

"Zǐyè is going to take action?" Hearing this, Liú Xīnyán asked even more worriedly.

"Yep, the outer sect is buzzing about it. I must say, Wang Chen is really bold, challenging four territories in just two days. It’s no wonder those people are going crazy. This time, he’s in trouble!" Kě’ér continued, gloating.

"I’m not sure if it’s him!" Liú Xīnyán seemed more reserved and worried.

"Alright, Kě’ér, stop it. Sister Xīnyán is already worried. Hehe, tell us, how’s the investigation going? Is that guy really Wang Chen? We don’t want Sister Xīnyán to worry for nothing." Zǐlán smiled at Kě’ér.

She had noticed Liú Xīnyán’s recent behavior, especially her worried expression, and couldn’t help but sigh.

She knew that Liú Xīnyán wasn’t worried about Wang Chen, but about that young man. If he really was Wang Chen, things would get complicated.

"I don’t know. Xiàng Qiánkān isn’t revealing any information. I don’t know what his relationship with Wang Chen is, but he’s really protecting him. Hmph, the guy who usually gets excited at the sight of Star Beads is indifferent this time. That Wang Chen is quite elusive. I haven’t seen him, so I’m not sure if it’s him!" Kě’ér pouted, complaining.

Clearly, from her previous gloating expression, she really hoped it was Wang Chen, which would save her the trouble of revenge, leaving it to Zǐyè to handle.

"We need to find out quickly. Tomorrow, keep an eye on Zǐyè’s movements. Kě’ér, come back early and see if you can spot Wang Chen in the main hall!" Hearing this, Liú Xīnyán frowned and said to Kě’ér.

"Alright, alright, Sister Xīnyán just worries about him. What’s so good about that guy!" Kě’ér pouted and muttered.

Under the night sky, Liú Xīnyán stood by the window, looking out at the night, her brows furrowed with doubt. "Are you really Wang Chen?"

She couldn’t help but murmur softly.

"Finished, Sister Xīnyán is finished. What’s so good about that damn guy? I’ve never seen Sister Xīnyán like this. She usually hates those smelly men, doesn’t she?" Kě’ér, leaving Liú Xīnyán’s room, couldn’t help but complain to Zǐlán.

"Hehe, what do you know, little girl? Investigate properly. Otherwise, Sister Xīnyán won’t have the mood to rob for the next few days!" Zǐlán patted Kě’ér’s head and said with a bitter smile. This was the first time she had seen Liú Xīnyán like this. She could only sigh that saving a beauty really had its consequences, even involving someone as reserved as Liú Xīnyán.

At the same time, her eyes also carried a hint of doubt. Recalling that cold man from that day, could he really be Wang Chen? If so, he was really a troublemaker. So bold, didn’t he know how many people he had offended and how much trouble he had brought upon himself?

...

At the same time, this cold night, the outer sect was also buzzing.

Wang Chen, who had risen strongly over the past two months, once again became the hottest topic. In the evening, Zǐyè announced they would deal with this guy. With only four days left until the end of the month, could that guy hold on?

Everyone was discussing this matter. Over the past two days, Wang Chen’s points had increased at a terrifying rate, challenging four team territories!

Especially today, he even challenged Bái Chén’s territory and reportedly defeated Bái Chén completely!

Was that something a human could do? A Ninth Stage Body Tempering martial practitioner defeating a First Stage True Martial Practitioner. This seemed to be the first time in the Star Sect, at least the first time they had heard of it. It was too crazy.

Facing Zǐyè, what could he do? Could he create another miracle? Many people were eagerly waiting to see.

Tomorrow was bound to be an extraordinary day. The last few days of this month, the three devilish days of November, seemed to have started a day early with Wang Chen’s turmoil. This month was destined to be crazy and sensational.
